#5 UK Molly – Children of the Universe


Yep, it's time to count down my top five songs for this year, starting somewhat unexpectedly with the UK:


I’ve listened to this one a few times now (yes I buy the Eurovision album each year and have it pumping in my car in the weeks proceeding the contest – what of it?) and it keeps growing on me.

I almost can’t believe it’s a UK entry, as it sounds so modern – which I guess is the whole point.

Molly has a great voice and provided this is staged well in Copenhagen (and she loses the faux-hippy bohemian princess rubbish from the video), the UK could be in for its best finish for some years.

Well anything would have to be better than the Bonnie Tyler abomination last year.
